Meanwhile, June "a, 1887.
Trade in almost all kinds of bus
mess, has been very quiet for some
time and may remain so for a few
weeks. In produce very little is do
ing. Some new wheat is being thresh-
ed and will soon begin to make its
appearance in market. The recent
panic in the Chicago wheat market
on account of heavy decline, among
the CANDLES in the futures, has had a
depressing influence on the legitimate
trade. 1t is likely that new wheat
will open at 65 to 20 for clean, ma
tured wheat. The quality will gen.
orally be good. The weather has
been favorable and farmers who do
not take advantage of the good
weather to house their wheat act UNI
wisely. The greatest danger is from
putting into large binds before thor
oughly dry. Wheat should be spread
out or shifted from bin to bin I'M
til dry. The slightest must or unfav-
orable smell will be detected either
before or after grinding, and more or
less damage the sale of wheat and
flour. Too much care can not be
taken in the handling of grain, espe'
cially wheat. When in good condi.
ton it will generally command the
best price, and pays well for the little
carein handling untilthoroughly dry
See to it that your wheat does not
damage in any way for want of pro
per attention.

best proof Of piety. To blemish a
good creed by bad living is certainly
blamable.-Rev. DR.. Patton.
